Question

Given: Triangle ABC, mmBC=24 cm, line segment AL- < bisector

Answer 1

The value of line AL is 21. 51cm

How to determine the length

To find line AL,

Using

Sin α = opposite/ hypotenuse to find line AB

Sin 90 = x/ 24

1 = x/24

Cross multiply

x = 24cm

Now, let's find line AC

Sin angle B = line AC/24

Note that to find angle B

angle A + angle B + angle C = 180

But angle B = 2 Angle A

x + 2x + 90 = 180

3x + 90 = 180

3x = 180-90

x = 30°

Angle B = 2 × 30 = 60°

Sin 60 = x/ 24

0. 8660 = x/24

Cross multiply

x = 24 × 0. 8660

x = 20. 78cm

We have the angle of A  in the given triangle to be divide into two by the bisector, angle A = 15°

To find line AL, we use

Cos = adjacent/ line AL

Cos 15 = 20. 78/ line AL

Line AL = 20. 78/ cos 15

Line AL = 20. 78 / 0. 9659

Line AL = 21. 51 cm

Thus, the value of line AL is 21. 51cm
